About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life, meet interesting new people, to get to know the local life. My goal in life is to stay open for new paths and opportunities. :)

ABOUT ME

If you see me sad or mad... well, that is kind of impossible. I love a good laughter. I love going out to the nature. I want to try my limits and reach my existential full potential. I seek for adventures, no doubt about that.

Sports? Played football for 15 years before losing my heart for running. I get tons of energy from doing sports outdoors: trail running, xc skiing, snowboarding, cycling.. U name it!

Social? I like people and get along with everybody.

PHILOSOPHY

Take a chance, dare to try.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have done a lot of backpacking and hiking around the globe. Every now and then I leave somewhere without specific plans. I think it's the best way to travel :)

If there are any travellers along our road we should definitely meet and go for a coffee, for example. So please don't be afraid to ask! I am living in the old city of Stavanger at the moment, and I have a couch.. If I am not running on the mountains; welcome!
